The reason is simple - a fault has been detected by the ECU. You'll need to get the fault code read out to diagnose the problem.

Depending on your mechanical skills, you can either do this yourself with a paperclip and following the instructions on the the site I am about to mention, or cross a mechanics palm with silver and get him to put his fault code reader on it for you.

The diagnostic plug, by the way is under a removable cover beneath the handbrake. Post back the fault code(s) results if you do the DIY approach and someone will *try* and help you further.
